So while others in America are worried about an Iranian nuclear weapon, the nation’s top Democrat has other anxieties about Iran that keep him up at night. Forget about the Iranian president’s desire to “wipe” Israel off the map and threat to choke off oil supplies to the West, Chairman Dean is more concerned with an elected president of the U.S. turning our nation into a fundamentalist dictatorship. Consider the following from today’s ABC News’ The Note:
while discussing domestic surveillance on ABC’s Good Morning America, DNC Chairman Howard Dean said many in the Republican Party disagree with the President, adding that all Democrats are asking is that “we don’t turn this country into a country like Iran, where the president of Iran can do everything he wants at any time.”
Pathetic, but I’m sure Sen. Kerry agrees with him.
